Thanks for the feedback! I’m happy to hear you enjoyed it. There are certainly some areas we’d want to improve upon, but we’re pretty happy with how our first unity game turned out (shout out to our dev team because I’m a hopeless programmer)!
Easter Egg: Jungle Cat is a featured vocalist in one of the songs… well, “meowcalist.” If you listen just close enough you may pick up one of her dulcet meows!
Abbi, our resident artist, did an incredible job on the graphics! Each new asset that would pop up in our discord left every other team member's jaw on the floor! If you'd like to see more of her work you can view her portfolio on her website (spoiler warning - it's really good): https://www.agurdinillustration.com/
On another note, I'm so glad you enjoyed the music! It was my first time working within the Genre and I learned a lot regarding creating "Vegas-y" sounds and a casino atmosphere through my tunes.
We really appreciate your gameplay feedback and are so happy to hear you enjoyed the game <3
Fun Fact: The "Egg" song that plays during the final boss was created in about 30 minutes before deadline, and I'm so glad we got it in! The vocals for the track were done in 1 take; our project manager, Jakob, walked in to the recording room while Miño (one of our devs) and I were sitting on the floor with a microphone between us recording it like the gremlins we are! We all collectively lost it hehehe.
Unusual is an UNDERSTATEMENT!
Hehehe I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it as a whole. The music I made drew from a lot of different inspirations including 1970s Las Vegas big band jazz and Elvis. The track "Boom," which is my personal favorite, drew heavily from Milt Buckner's "Green Onions," John Lee Hooker's, "Boom Boom," and Elvis Presley's, "Hound Dog." I really had it go off the rails towards the end of the track because you can't have Las Vegas without some CRAZY!
We really appreciate the gameplay feedback and are so glad you enjoyed the game! We hope to take another step forward as a team in next years GMTK jam :)
Thanks for the feedback; I'm really glad you enjoyed the music! As the creator of all the tunes I was going for some real unhinged Elvis-era 'Las Vegas' vibes along with some more traditional 'Big Band sounds'. It was my first time working within the Genre so I certainly learned a lot and had a ton of fun with it.
Our team had a blast developing this one and took a big step forward from our submission last year. We're so glad to hear you enjoyed it, and always appreciate the gameplay feedback <3
